Center for Neural Data Science Symposium

Event Details:

Wednesday, October 22, 2025
12:00pm - 6:30pm PDT

Location

John A. and Cynthia Fry Gunn Rotunda, E241 at the ChEM-H / Neuro, 290 Jane Stanford Way, 2nd floor, Stanford, CA 94305

This event is open to:

Faculty/Staff
Postdocs
Students

NOTE: This event is open to Stanford affiliates only.

The goal of this symposium is to introduce the Center for Neural Data Science, a collaboration between Stanford Data Science and the Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute led by Scott Linderman and Laura Gwilliams.

We invite Stanford affiliates to join our community of researchers with shared interests in neuroscience and data science. This event will feature talks from Stanford faculty as well as several opportunities to meet and mingle with colleagues. It will kickstart the Center’s smaller and more regular events, including journal clubs and an internal seminar series.

This in-person event is a great chance to connect with fellow researchers and experts in the field of neural data science. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to learn and collaborate with peers who share your passion for advancing the field.
